Appeal for witnesses after teen critically injured in Langwarrin collision

Somerville Highway Patrol members are continuing to investigate after a teenage girl crashed an allegedly stolen vehicle in Langwarrin last night.

The vehicle was travelling north-bound on Peninsula Link, near the Cranbourne-Frankston Road exit, when the driver lost control and the vehicle rolled numerous times about 10.15pm.

The 14-year-old driver from the Mornington Peninsula area was pulled from the overturned vehicle and taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries where she remains in a critical condition.

Her 14-year-old female passenger, also from the Mornington Peninsula area, was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The cause of the collision remains under investigation.

Police are keen to speak to anyone who has dashcam footage or who witnessed the driving behaviour of the grey Honda Jazz travelling in the area prior to the collision.

The vehicle was allegedly stolen from a multi-level car park on Warrigal Road after the keys were taken from a Chadstone gym on 23 July between 7.30pm and 9.30pm.

It is not believed the two girls were involved in the theft of the Honda Jazz and enquiries into this incident remain ongoing.

Anyone who witnessed the incident, has dashcam or CCTV footage or anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit an online confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
